Just to pipe in on CHOCO-MOOSE. I emailed Riv a while ago and they said they may not restock them ever and/or is yet undecided on the fate of the Chocomoose. I noticed they came into stock at bluelug and immediately ordered a pair and love them. They feel how I imagine moustache bars should feel when I imagined liking them. Sporty yet comfortable with lots of for and aft space. Sportier than the Bosco. more comfortable than a drop. They have become one of my favorite bars (even thought I think Loscos are more classically handsome like a porteur bar) functionally the chocomoose are fantastic on a long TT bike. (I got these bars as a potential option on a appaloosa/hunqalpillar like build from a local builder but have stuck on my clementine because I love them so)
Given the lesser price - by the time you pay for bulky shipping it's still cheaper than Riv - plus you can order some fun blue lug merchandise since there will be lots of room in that box.
